Find out what different Team Sassy members plan to eat this week…

We all need to eat, and we know what to feed our bodies to stay in top form. But with so much on our plates, it’s a challenge to come up with three balanced and nutritional meals each day, let alone find the time to buy all the ingredients and turn them into tasty dishes.

Breakfast, lunch and dinner should really be times of the day that we look forward to, but even if we enjoy the act of eating, having to think of what to cook (or even what food to have delivered to our homes) can be a chore. This is where meal plans come in handy. With a simple click of a button, you can have ready-to-eat dishes delivered straight to your door or office for free (in biodegradable packaging no less!).

NOSH: Healthy Meal Plan Delivery

NOSH offers a variety of dietitian-approved meal plans to suit different preferences, nutrition goals and dietary requirements (allergen exclusion options are available which will be produced from a separate production line). What’s more, each calorie-controlled meal is thoughtfully designed by the service’s in-house chefs to ensure you receive balanced meals without any additives or preservatives. Read on to find out which meal plan different members of our team would pick and which dishes they’re most excited to try.


NOSH: Get Lean Meal Plan

NOSH Get Lean, From $337/Day

Jess’s Pick

Why this meal plan?

I’ve been working on my fitness goals for a while now, and while I’ve got the exercise part sorted, where I fall short is committing to healthy eating. I like that the Classic NOSH menu has a “Get Lean” option (options include Balanced Diet, Build Muscle, Vegetarian, Flexitarian, Keto and more) that can help me stay on track with a high protein and low carb diet. Plus, now that there’s the option to purchase 30 and 40-day packages, I can more easily stick to my healthy eating goals over the summer.

What excites you from the menu?

The first thing that struck me about the week’s menu was the variety. Premium ingredients such as GMO-free chicken, grass-fed beef and sustainably harvested fish all make appearances on the lunch and dinner menus, with savoury and sweeter options alternating for breakfast (think Banana Almond Chia-Seeds Pudding and Southwest Turkey and Egg Breakfast Bowl). I’m most looking forward to trying the Tandoori Salmon Salad with Mint Chutney Dressing for lunch and the Peri Peri Pulled Pork with Herb-Roasted Sweet Potato & Succotash for dinner.


NOSH: Flexi Meal Plan

NOSH Flexi, From $268/Day

Nicole’s Pick

Why this meal plan?

I think it’s great that NOSH introduced a flexitarian option to Hong Kong that allows people to try a mostly plant-based diet with some animal products. I enjoy most vegetables and am a big fan of tofu and soy products, but I do crave meat every now and then. I’m also a firm believer that variety is the spice of life, so it’s great to know that the team have created over 100 new dishes this year to ensure I’d never get bored with the menu.

What excites you from the menu?

It was great to see that NOSH has partnered with plant-based chicken brand TiNDLE to create the Flexi menu as I like to substitute meat where I can. I’m pleased to see dishes like Paneer Butter Masala, Lamb Kebab with Moroccan Spiced Vegetables and Chicken Jambalaya with Mixed Peppers. Usually when you think of healthy meal plans, you don’t expect much in the flavour department, but these dishes look like they pack a punch!


NOSH: Veggie Meal Plan

NOSH Veggie, From $230/Day

Fashila’s Pick

Why this meal plan?

Although I’m not vegetarian, I like to go veggie when I can — there’s something about having a colourful plate that excites your palate (eat your greens, and reds and yellows and purples)! And, coming from South India where we have a variety of vegetarian dishes, veggie definitely doesn’t mean boring and NOSH further attests to that (and come on, how amazing does a warm spiced couscous salad sound?).

What excites you from the menu?

That it’s more than just Impossible meat and boiled vegetables! From Vietnamese Lemongrass Tofu with Brown Rice to Truffle and Beets & Burrata Salad with Balsamic Honey Dijon Balsamic Vinaigrette, NOSH Veggie features flavourful dishes inspired from countries around the globe so no two meals are the same. And as a rice-dependent life form, seeing at least one wholesome rice dish a day has me grinning from ear to ear!
